Rajasthan Royals have played some good cricket this season but they cannot relax here as there are plenty of quality teams hovering around them. They have won five out of their 9 games so far and a win in this game can go a long way in sealing a playoff place for them. They have a quality batting line-up while their bowling too is pretty strong. The only worry for them is their death bowling and that is something they need to sort it out.
Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, are at the top of the table and are a well-oiled unit with plenty of options in all departments. They are, however, coming on the back of a shocking loss against Delhi. RR also managed to get the better of GT in a thriller of a game earlier this season, and let's hope for another cracking encounter.

RR vs GT, Top Captain or Vice-captain choices
Hardik Pandya
The GT skipper got runs under his belt in the last game but could not score at a fair clip. He, however, is a good option for captain or vice-captain because he bats at number 3 and will at least bowl 2 overs for his side. He is a quality player and expect him to put a strong performance soon.
Jos Buttler
Jos Buttler has not been able to score much runs in the last couple of games but we all know his capabilities. He has already scored three fifties this season and is now due for another big score and we might just see him unleash his might against GT.
Sanju Samson
The RR skipper played a brilliant knock to take his side over the line in the last game against GT. He will also be itching to get a big score in this game after some mediocre returns and he is a great choice for captain or vice-captain in this game.
